Menarock residents concluded a months-long effort to support Pakenham with a triumphant handover day for their food drive.
Purton Place Preloved Shop, Sammy’s Community Pantry and Have Hope Inc. each received a visit from residents and staff of Menarock LIFE, McGregor Gardens on Tuesday 11 March.
Bags full of food and goods were handed over to help support their efforts with those in need.
This concludes a food drive initiated and supported by Menarock residents, families and staff.
Residents got on the bus to make the handover in person at Sammy’s Pantry and Purton Place. Have Hope came around to McGregor Gardens later in the day.
All three were grateful for these senior citizens, who showed that all can play a role in helping others.
“Thanks to families, staff and residents who donated to help other people in need and give back to our community,” Lifestyle Coordinator Stephanie Ledwidge said.
Recently, Menarock also ran a raffle which raised money for the Pakenham Fire Brigade.
